Biodegradation of Wastewater Oil Pollutants, Identification and Characterization: A Case Study – Galing River, Kuantan Pahang, Malaysia

This research is aims to access the potential of natural occurring bacteria for pollutant degradation. The study was carried out in Galing River, Kuantan, Pahang. There were four sampling sites that were chosen along the river and the samples were analyzed to identify specific bacteria that useful...
